Women Opt For Natural Look Rather Than Tons of Make Up

Saks: A Good Diet Allows Women to Wear Less Make Up

Women looking to adopt a more natural look this year by using fewer cosmetics could benefit from a healthy eating regime and a good skincare routine, according to experts.

Kirsty Jewson, a beauty guru at leading British high street salon Saks, said: "You are what you eat so as well as a good skincare routine you should look at what foods you are eating."

Ms Jewson explained that foods rich in essential fatty acids, like oily fish and flax seed, and antioxidants found in spinach, goji berries and greens, have "excellent skin benefiting properties."

Eating such foods can have an anti-aging and anti-inflammatory effect, she advised.

"[This] is extremely beneficial for acne prone skin and don't forget to drink plenty of water too," she added.

The guidance follows the publication of a recent survey which revealed that 15 per cent of women wouldn't dream of leaving the house without their make up on.

A further 39 per cent said they even dread being seen by their partner without it on.
